Let’s end it tomorrow with Verlander on the mound. I hope we see plenty of the Lovely Kate during the game. Class on the field, class in the dugout, and class in the stands for our Houston Astros, busy making Yankees fans miserable. I love it.
He shows confidence in his guys and he’s consistent in all that he does. Players respect the hell out of him because he’s straight up all the time. Love AJ.
How bout our Bullpen so far this series? Yankees bullpen is all they talk about but the ones delivering this series are in the other bullpen. Player of the game tonight: Ryan Pressley. Coming off some tough appearances and an injury he was NAILS tonight in about as pressure packed a situation as you can conceive of. So happy for him!
The Yankees are in a world of hurt. Got our two aces coming up on full rest and our hitters are warmed up. But I won't be comfortable to the last out. Let's stomp on them while they are down. Don't even leave it to the pitching. Let's score buckets of runs and close them out tomorrow. Alvarez and Gurriel you are on notice, show up big tomorrow, at least one home run a piece.
This team showed alot in these 2 games in NYC. Showed that they have grown in the last 2 years (with additions). Should not have question their heart. Hats off to you Astros. Now, finish it.
Pressly’s performance in the 5th was the key to the game- it could’ve gone the Yankees way but he shut them down with 1 out bases loaded. Good on Hinch to put him in that critical spot. Springer and Correa share bragging rights for the offensive performance of the game — awesome win !
Reddick having big hits in each of the last two games is both incredibly surprising and massive for this team. Like we saw tonight, if the Astros get anything from the bottom of the lineup it is very tough to beat them.
